I installed better than stock air shocks for sure. Two clicks from soft side & springs cranked a bit for softest ride with out bounce and don't bottom out two up.

i have a set which i will hopefully get to install this Sunday. Until then, the only input i have is that they were fantastic to deal with over the phone.

Also they look great, its a shame they'll be hidden behind the bags

I've got a set. I've probably got a couple hundred miles on them and they do ride better one up and two up they ride even better.

These are the first mc shocks I've every bought and so far I'm pleased. But, I don't have anything to compare them to other than the oem's.

Interesting that these shocks are fully adjustable. Similar to the 3-3's without the condescending tone. Might be my next upgrade over the ohlins

They do tend to fade on 800 mile day but most days are just fine.

I have a set, big improvement, the rear tire stays planted and frost heaves don't bounce me off the seat anymore. I have the 1" lower than stock ones. Now I just need to do something with the front.
Also I found pro action was great to talk to and excellent customer service.

I had a pair but sent them back for a refund. They were too stiff for me. I was never able to dial them in. I will say they made the bike handle great.
They are a quality shock and the customer service is the best. Great people to deal with. They just weren't for me.
